Which of these SACD players would you choose?


Oppo BDP-80 (blu-ray, SACD, DVD Audio) - Retail $289

Pioneer Elite PD-D6-J (SACD) - Retail $499 on Sale for $229

I already have an Integra 6-disk CD player and a Samsung blu-ray player that would be replaced by the Oppo and obviously would stay with the Pioneer Elite.

It seems that there should be less compromise with the Pioneer Elite because of its retail price and the fact that it has fewer features. I have room in my entertainment center for another component, but would mind keeping it simple.

What are you thoughts?

I think maybe you mean the 83, Norm? (i.e., not the 80) Too bad all of Oppo's numbers begin with an 8!

Re the Oppos and quality: the 83 is my 3rd over 3 years, and the quality/reliability of all of them has been outstanding. I have also found their customer service to be exemplary.
